Chapter 1402: Kill!
Among the commanders of several corps of the independent division, Ma Chaoyang, like Jiang Yanming, who is currently the commander of the Songhu garrison area in China, belongs to the junior generation, and the corps under his command is a second-line unit, and the weight of his speech is naturally not as heavy as that of the commanders of several main field corps.
In normal times, Ma Chaoyang would not take the initiative to speak, but this great riot that swept the entire Indochina Peninsula occurred after he served as the commander of the garrison area, and the pressure of Shen Jun, director of the Investigation Division, and Yu Deshui, the director of the Intelligence Division, was great, and Ma Chaoyang's pressure was not lighter than that of two people.
As a commander directly responsible for the military security of the Indochina Peninsula, Ma Chaoyang has a more intuitive feeling about this major riot, although in Vientiane, where the garrison headquarters is located, and in the surrounding areas, the riot was suppressed by his own force as soon as it started, making this area the place with the least losses.
The division commander did not punish himself, but it does not mean that Ma Chaoyang is not guilty, he believes that this is his own dereliction of duty, and most of the commanders of the city garrisons who have been punished are from their own corps, what does this mean?
Ma Chaoyang knew very well in his heart that when carrying out the action of arresting the rioters, the troops under the garrison area used more severe methods, and the most rioters who tried to escape or resisted arrest were killed, and Ma Chaoyang himself wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to wipe out the rioters to completely eradicate all the unstable factors in the Indochina Peninsula, so he advocated strict punishment.
Ma Chaoyang listened to Li Honggang and Tang Qiusheng's words very uncomfortably, and did not agree with their opinions, and showing mercy to his subordinates was committing crimes against his compatriots, so he couldn't help but speak, "Division commanders, as a military commander in charge of the security of the Indochina Peninsula, during my tenure, such a horrific riot occurred. I assume my responsibility, however, this is not the basis for my following observations. ”
"My opinion is that it must be dealt with strictly. Those who should be sentenced to life imprisonment will all be shot, and these people, the tendencies in their bones have been deeply ingrained, and they will not change in the slightest because of our humanity, leniency, and lack of blame in the past. Tomorrow, they will be the root cause of the next riot, and we must use the most severe means to completely and completely eliminate these potential hidden dangers. That's all my opinion! ”
Ma Chaoyang's words represent a point of view that seems to be more than Shen Jun and Yu Deshui's Jianyi. The farther they go, the more brutal the methods are, so that the number of thugs shot will not only be more than 40,000, but more.
This caused a new round of heated debates, and seeing this meaning, the number of people who opposed the opinions of Ma Chaoyang, Shen Jun, and Yu Deshui gradually increased, and the officers only cared about arguing. But he didn't notice that the face of the division commander Tang Qiuli became more and more ugly, from the beginning of his face sinking like water, to the current brows are tightly locked, and his face is pale.
"Slap" slammed the table. It was like a horn that suddenly cut off the power, everyone had nothing to inform and argue, and looking at the direction where the sound sounded, they found that the division commander Tang Qiuli had already stood up, looking at everyone with burning eyes.
Tang Qiuli's voice was a little hoarse because of his extreme suppression, "Enough!" I don't need such meaningless arguments, in the face of a lot of evidence, hard facts, in the face of the tragedy that has already happened to our compatriots, we still have to argue endlessly, unnecessary, a waste of time and ridiculous. ”
"You should remember that at the military meeting before the arrest, I swore that whoever kills one of my compatriots, I will kill his entire family, whoever injures one of my compatriots, I will cut off his head, whoever destroys my compatriot's house, I will let his whole family sweep out of the house, and whoever robs my compatriot of a penny, I will let him go bankrupt." …,
"What I said, the words are still in your ears, you haven't forgotten jì, right? So why is there a debate about how to deal with it? Saying that, Tang Qiuli's gaze swept towards Li Honggang and Tang Qiusheng, the faces of the two changed, a little unnatural, everyone also heard it, the teacher's words were pointed, and he was already angry about the opinions of advocating leniency!
Tang Qiuli's voice suddenly became cold, "Everyone, don't mention to me any ridiculous words such as repaying grievances with virtue or forgiveness, I also said that even if there is infamy behind me, even if my hands are stained with blood, I have no regrets and no shame, blood debt and blood repayment, since ancient times, I want to use the heads of these beasts to pay tribute to our compatriots who were killed, and use their filthy deeds to sprinkle the land of the Indochina Peninsula, so that other people with ill intentions or evil intentions shudder when they think about it!" ”
As he spoke, his sharp gaze, with a rolling murderous aura, glanced at the generals, and then said: "I have only one decision, kill!" If you are not afraid of killing more, you are afraid of killing less, gentleness and generosity cannot change the fact that it has been more than 100 years, why should our compatriots suffer such a disaster, the British and the Japanese have ruled this land, why has nothing like this happened? ”
"It's because we Chinese are too kind, that kind of sick hatred of China from the heart and in the bones, must be washed away with blood, I, Tang Qiuli, am not a murderous person, God has the virtue of a good life, but it does not include these thugs who have done many evils, and it is not said to these thugs who are in blood debt."
"The whole two big bags of interrogation records are shocking! What is recorded is the living life of our compatriots, how can I forgive this gang of thugs in this riot, how can I forgive these thugs, how can I repay grievances with virtue? Can any of you sue me, how can I forgive? ”
Speaking of this, Tang Qiuli seemed to be very tired, sat back in the chair, picked up the teacup, took a sip of water, and seemed to calm down a lot, his words, like thunder, resounded in the ears of the generals, they were just arguing about how to punish them, but they didn't expect that the division commander had such thoughts in his heart.
For a while, the hearts of the generals were mixed and quite complicated, and the atmosphere in the conference room was low and slightly depressing, and Tang Qiuli continued with a little bitterness: "Everyone here is the core decision-making level of the independent division, and they are my Tang Qiuli's life and death brothers. ”
"It is true that the opinions of Hong Gang and Brother Qiusheng are safe and reliable, if I do something else, I Tang Qiuli will definitely accept it seriously, but it is not good to put it in this matter, even if everyone is against it, I will insist on going my own way."
Li Honggang's face was solemn, and he said solemnly: "Division commander, Hong Gang is very ashamed, he is also full of hatred for my compatriots who have suffered such a disaster, but I do not intend to take back what I said just now, but the order of the division commander, I, Li Honggang and all the officers and men of the 29th Corps, will absolutely carry it out unconditionally. ”
As soon as Li Honggang finished speaking, he sat down without saying a word, Tang Qiusheng looked at his cousin with an ugly face, he wanted to speak and stopped, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Xiaoqiu's killing is too heavy, what he said just now undoubtedly made him sad and disappointed, but it is the true thoughts in his heart, if he doesn't say it, not only does he not fulfill his duty, but also his conscience is extinguished, this misunderstanding can only find an opportunity to say it!" ”
Tang Qiuli's face was very unpleasant, he stood up again, and his voice became unquestionable, "My next words are orders, orders that cannot be changed, no one should raise objections, if that person thinks that he cannot carry out my bloody revenge order, please temporarily hand over the military power, and replace it with someone who is willing to accompany me Tang Qiuli and has blood on his hands to do it, do you want to quit?" He snapped. …,
The faces of all the generals were as if they were cast in iron, sitting on their waists, not squinting, motionless, Tang Qiuli continued: "Okay, you haven't withdrawn, Chief of Staff Zhao and Staff Officer Liu, record the following order, from now on, a special military tribunal will be established to try the rioters arrested in the Indochina Peninsula, and it will be issued in the name of the Indochina Peninsula Military and Political Management Committee of the Independent Division, and I will personally serve as the chief judge of this court, and the other members are the senior military officers here. ”
"The court will begin its work now, and I will immediately announce the verdict, and the verdict will not allow any dissenting opinions: 1. The organizers of the riot in the Indochina Peninsula are 873 people, and the number of backbone rioters is 45,326, and the number of people who frantically killed our compatriots and had the blood of Chinese and overseas Chinese on their hands is 87,837 people, and all of the above people will be sentenced to death, executed on the same day, and all their property will be confiscated."
"Second, the remaining rioters, don't they want to kill all the Chinese? Don't you want to drive the Chinese out of Indochina? Well, I will send them to China, and their families, together with the families of the thugs sentenced to death, will be escorted en masse to the labor camp of our independent division in the Taihang Mountains base area in North China, and they will be buried on Chinese territory without pardon. ”
"All the verdicts will be announced in the name of the special military court to all areas of Indochina for seven days, and after seven days, the rioters sentenced to death will be executed in 12 cities, including Mandalay, Yangon, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phnom Penh, Vientiane, and Hanoi."
Everyone was stunned, even Ma Chaoyang, who advocated severe punishment of the rioters, and Shen Jun and Yu Deshui, who insisted on dealing with them strictly, all looked at Tang Qiuli dumbfounded, and in the minds of the generals, there was only a string of numbers, shooting more than 130,000 people at one time, and escorting the remaining 100,000 people, as well as all the families of the thugs, to the country, if calculated in this way, it would be a terrifying number of nearly one million people, too crazy!
